I know, two Super Bowl appearances with one win is embarrassing right? Right?

And we've had two missed playoffs and two embarrassing first round playoff exits too. All during the "prime" of a top-5 franchise quarterback.

You can look at it glass half full or glass half empty.

I think this organization has missed out on some success because of poor front office decisions the last 5 years. Good players can cover up some bad decisions. And a great quarterback can cover up more. Never said we were bad across the board.

Just said the offensive line and the decisions on who get money and when has been pretty piss poor.

Cowher's players. Look at the stellar depth particularly on the defensive side.

thats funny... over all the years that Cowher was here ... look at the draft history and signings. Then look at Tomlins. Tomlin has surpassed or is damn close to surpassing Cowher in the "bad drafts" arens in only 5 years. I don't think Tomlin has had a good free agent signing yet... Well, maybe Foote (a cowher player)

Cowher's biggest problem was the QB situation for all those years. That was no secret.

Tomlin said we squashed grapes in 2012, but will work to drink the wine in our future endeavors.:)

Not funny at all. It's fact.

6 years in a row in the playoffs.

The Noll players began to leave and they couldn't win, 4 of 6 years at home with two 10 loss seasons and a 9 loss in that time span.
